Sobering statistic from our friends in Connecticut.
The automobile, a tool invented to safely transport people with all its crumple zones, airbags, seat belts, safety glass, computers and various safety systems, kills more people every year in the United States than the gun; a tool invented to kill.
Over the last few decades - roughly speaking - every year fire arm deaths are in the 30,000's and motor vehicle deaths in the 40,000's.
Year Firearms Motor Vehicles
1999...........28,874......................41,717
2000...........28,663......................41,945
2004...........29,569......................42,836
2007...........31,224......................41,059
